Photographer’s Note

The Island of Vormsi with its juniper fields, seaside meadows, erratic boulders and lighthouses is best toured on a bicycle or on foot. The gravezard of Vormsi church (1632) is famous for numerous ancient circular crosses.

Hello George, a very interesting place. The composition is very good but I would like the first cross a bit more in focus (it is only a matter of personal preferences). I like also the black & white choose...
Regards,
Javier

That's an interesting one. I think I would have darkened it a bit more with post-processing but the composition is allright. The little lack of contrast is the weak point of your picture, that's quite a pity.

I made a workshop. Just hope you will think it's helpful.

Hello George,
Your choice of Black and White was a good one. I really like the way you captured the sunlight. Your depth of field looks a little off in that the cross in the foreground is not quite in focus but the composition itself is marvelous! I tried a workshop for you just for fun!

Interesting unusual shapes of crosses in contrast to the trees trunks. I do like sunrays exposing crosses and the one shown at the front of photo. Good job. Greetings T.

I love the lighting of this shot - being lit from the back-left resulting in the long shadows is very effective.

Well done!
